Google Earth coming to cars

With the increasing features in today's automobiles, it seems we will soon have UIVs (Unmanned, Intelligent Vehicles).

The cars of today are becoming more and more adaptive and situation aware and are already assisting drivers in many ways to ensure safety and luxury.

The latest upgrade in Navigation System is being implemented in the form of our beloved Google Earth!!

VW recently showed off its Google Earth based navigation system and now, Honda has picked up the application in its upcoming models. Google Earth will interface with the existing navigation service, adding high-resolution satellite images of cities to current traffic information downloaded via the car's wireless internet connection.
